The Rotary Rubbing Color Fastness Tester, also known as a Crockmeter, is widely used in the textile industry to evaluate the color fastness of fabrics under dry and wet rubbing conditions. It is particularly suitable for printed fabrics and provides precise, reproducible results according to international textile standards. The instrument simulates real-world abrasion to assess fabric performance during wear, laundering, or handling.
Application
The tester is mainly used for printed fabrics and dyed textiles to determine resistance to color transfer caused by friction. Key applications include textile printing, garment manufacturing, quality control, and R&D in fabric finishing and dyeing.
Standards
ISO 105-X12 (Textiles — Color fastness — Tests for color fastness to rubbing)
AATCC 8 (Colorfastness to Crocking)
